This is one of the Pampered Chef meals made with the Basic Beef.

Once you have taken your basic beef recipe found here

and separated it into 3 freezer bags, take one freezer bag and add:

8 oz. sliced mushrooms
1 can (10.75 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
1/4 cup of water
1 tsp. ground paprika
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/4 tsp coarsely ground black pepper

Combine in a large (I used 1 gallon size) resealable freezer plastic bag. Freeze for up to 3 months.

When it is time to eat it:

Microwave packet on DEFROST (30% power) for 8-10 minutes or until softened. Pour into 10 inch skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat.

Finish and Serve:

• Stir in 8 oz. of sour cream into the beef mixture
• Cook 1 pound of egg noodles; drain. Toss with 1/4 cup of parsley and 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
• Spoon Stroganoff over noodles and sprinkle with additional paprika and parley if desired.
